Abstract:
The key constructional components for a bioartificial liver(BAL) include the source of hepatocyte cell line, the semi-permeable membrane or bioreactor and the delivery system. The most important part of a BAL is cell line. The properties of the hepatocyte cell line will directly affect the support efficacy of a BAL. This article reviewed the recent progress in researches on hepatocyte cell line used in BAL.
